I'm hoping I haven't missed a December 2019 thread- apologies if I have.
I got my BFP at 10dpo this morning, giving me an estimated due date of 2nd December.
I know it's incredibly early-I'm very nervous about that at the moment!
Is there anyone else with a December 2019 due date yet?

So sorry @Roxybaby12

That's unsettling @codenameduchess, stay positive for now

PinkFizz19 · 12/04/2019 18:33

@Roxybaby12 So sorry to hear this. Sending you lots of love and hugs. Be kind to yourself 💝 xxx

JayDot500 · 12/04/2019 18:54

So sorry to hear that @RoxyBaby12. Best wishes for your recovery and journey Flowers

Sorry also to hear/read about the bleeding/cramping/uncertainty that others are also facing. I remember with DS I bled twice and had resigned myself to everything other than having a healthy baby at the end of it. The second bleed was as if I'd chopped an artery! Stay positive everyone Flowers💪

@Roxybaby12 I'm so sorry to hear this, so so sad. Sending virtual hugs xx

Roxybaby12 · 12/04/2019 20:27

Hi ladies,
How are you all this evening? Thank you for your well wishes, you are all so amazing! Wish we all knew each other in person.
Gotta stay in hospital for 3 days! They’ll check bloods again in 48 hours and go from there. The pain only seems to happen once a day! So weird but it’s so bad I couldn’t walk... but now I’ve got no pain at all! Anyway, thanks again ladies. Keep updated your journeys, sonlovely to hear some positive news. Xxx

Babybloom · 12/04/2019 21:34

@Roxybaby12 sending you lots of love and hugs! ❤️

MinnieLou · 12/04/2019 21:47

@Roxybaby12 glad they caught it when they did, and sounds like they're really looking after you which is good. Hope everything goes okay x

I haven't had anymore bleeding today just extremely faint pink when wiping, I've been extremely tired the past few days, Easter holidays and I'm in bed ready to sleep 😂 boobs have been really sore today and got a slight headache 😩
My gut instinct is I'm still pregnant but my head keeps thinking well what was with all the bleeding so just holding hope till Thursday 💜

SideEyeing · 12/04/2019 23:49

@Roxybaby12 sending you loads of strength. I'm glad they're taking care of you.

@MinnieLou Sounds like you and I are in exactly the same situation - I could have written your post word-for-word (including the sleep part - 2 naps today. Ridiculous.)

DP gets back from London tomorrow. I feel a bit pathetic - I've missed him loads. I'm glad he got to see his friend though; it's given me some tim to sit and be useless without feeling guilty or like I'm freezing anyone out.

MinnieLou · 13/04/2019 06:22

@SideEyeing haha! How strange! I'm sure you're the same edd? Mines 4th Dec.

I've had awful nights sleeps past few nights too, constant tossing and turning, one minute I'm hot the next I'm not. Woken up around half 5 with a bellyache, trapped wind and I think constipation 😩 sorry for tmi does anyone else have this?

How is everyone? x

Pip231018 · 13/04/2019 06:31

@MinnieLou Oh god. Me too! I never poo. I sat in subway yesterday googling constipation and when I looked up there was a builder who could see my google search. He winked and walked off. Morto.

I've not taken anything for it because I'm worried of the impact. X

PinkFizz19 · 13/04/2019 08:10

@MinnieLou My edd is 4th December too 😊

I'm not as "regular" as usual. Not constipated but it's all or nothing without being too tmi.

I've taken another Clearblue today just to check it's advancing. I got 1-2 weeks 2 Saturday's ago and I've just got 2-3 weeks this morning. Slightly worried as I'm 6 + 3 so thought it would have shown 3+ on the CB now.

@PinkFizz19 I've heard quite a lot about clear blue digital worrying people because the numbers didn't seem to increase even though everything was fine. I'm not sure why this seems to be the case but I would just stop using them because they cause a lot of unnecessary worry

PinkFizz19 · 13/04/2019 08:59

@stripes416 Thank you i know you're right. Years ago people would have poas and then that would have been it. No digitals..no weeks indicator. DP has said I've done 3 tests now...GP has done 1 and confirmed we're pregnant so I'm pregnant 😊💛

Thund4rcat · 13/04/2019 10:51

Hi all, I am so pleased to join this thread. I am 36 and have been TTC for 2 years and on our second cycle of ICSI, I just got my BFP yesterday. First cycle I had a CP after a very faint line one day followed by a negative. But this time it was very strong and came up right away. I think I am due 17th December (with IVF I think I date it from 2 weeks before egg collection). I am so excited to finally be pregnant.

My IVF clinic has booked me in for an early scan on 2nd May.

I have adenomyosis, so double risk of miscarriage but still feeling positive.

I haven't read all the posts here as there are a lot! But wonder if anyone else has done IVF or has adeno?

Notanotherthomas · 13/04/2019 12:08

@Roxybaby12 so sorry to hear your news, glad the hospital found it early, take care of yourself Flowers

@PinkFizz19 I’ve had similar with the clearblue. Got 1-2 weeks at 4+5 it went up to 2-3 weeks at 5+3 then 10 days later it was still on 2-3 weeks! I finally got my +3 yesterday Now I’m 7 weeks but it is really worrying! Especially as had a mmc in the past. I think the best we can do is not test so much but it’s so tempting! I regret using the clearblue digitals now

@Thund4rcat welcome to the group

SideEyeing · 13/04/2019 12:26

Welcome to the new ladies - congratulations. Clear Blue Digitals are a total stress - I was worrying about them a few pages ago. I honestly think they're a sly way of guaranteeing at least thirty quid out of any newly pregnant woman. The Morrison's tests were awful too - so much fainter than any other. @PinkFizz19 I think 3 tests is very restrained Grin for about three weeks we had the beginnings of a pregnancy test sculpture taking form in the bathroom upstairs. I'd sit on the floor with them all laid out in front of me - madness. I think it's a way of feeling in control in such an uncertain situation.

@MinnieLou - yep, same EDD (fingers, toes, legs and eyes crossed) Yep with the heartburn and trapped wind too. Not so much constipated as can't do anything 'satisfying' (ew.)

Getting SO nervous about this private scan on Monday now. It's at 6pm - wish I hadn't booked it all those weeks ago. I'm so dreading not seeing what I want to :(

Roxybaby12 · 13/04/2019 15:58

Update.. so it may not be ectopic after all! Apparently I’m not as far along as I thought and it’s too early to see anything on the scan. The doc has sent me home saying it’s probably the cyst causing the pain and bleeding. My hcg has been increasing but have to wait for another scan next week. Hoping they’ll see something in the uterus and bubba will grow nicely. Theyre not ruling out ectopic at the mo but have left me in limbo.... I’ll let you know when I know.

Welcome new comers.. it’s all go in the group! You’re gonna love it! 😂 xx

Thund4rcat · 13/04/2019 17:00

@Roxybaby12 that is great it might still be OK. Fingers crossed for you!

BostonFern · 13/04/2019 17:38

Welcome and congratulations @Thund4rcat

@Roxybaby12 I've got my fingers firmly crossed for you! X

@Roxybaby12 what a rollercoaster. I hope your scan goes well next week, but I’m sure it feels like a very long time away at this point!

@sideeyeing I hope your scan goes well on Monday.

I’m currently waiting for my dating scan appointment to come through... it was sent off for on Friday when I had my first contact with the midwife

agteacht · 13/04/2019 17:55

Omg @Roxybaby12 really??
What a rollercoaster!!!

Some brown spotting here today but keeping calm and just seeing what happens.

DieCryHate · 13/04/2019 18:30

@Roxybaby12 wow that's a lot for you to take in! Keeping it all crossed for your next scan and hope the time passes quickly and you aren't in any discomfort.

Roxybaby12 · 13/04/2019 20:33

Ahh you ladies are great- was gutted yesterday that I might not get to read anymore of your posts..
@agteacht I don’t think brown spotting is too much to worry about-well done at staying calm!
@pinkfizz19 I love seeing the words pregnant on those digis but I’ve never had one that was over 1-2 weeks.. I wouldn’t worry about the numbers! You’re definitely pregnant lovely. 👍 I don’t know how much you’ll see at 6 weeks.. I think the heart starts to beat around that time so you may see it but don’t be disheartened if you don’t! It’s so early.
The nurse called and said my hcg has double in 48 hours so the doc is really pleased! Scan is booked for Weds and praying they’ll see something in my uterus! From what I’ve read if the hcg doesn’t double more than 66% then it’s assumed it’s ectopic but mines pretty normal so maybe just super small! Fingers crossed.

MinnieLou · 13/04/2019 20:47

@Pip231018 haha! Yeah Im not taking anything either 🤔

@PinkFizz19 woo! Yeah I got my 3+ the other day but we're all different and our hcg levels could be so different anyway! I wouldn't worry x

@Thund4rcat welcome & congrats!

@SideEyeing I'm sure it will be okay, stay positive! I'm still worried too but need to stay positive otherwise I'm going to waste my Easter holiday worrying which could be for nothing! (I have bad anxiety too) xx

@Roxybaby12 Omg I'm so happy for you! I know it hasn't been ruled out but there is hope! I truly hope all is okay & do keep us updated!

agteacht · 13/04/2019 21:02

Well done you @Roxybaby12 staying so positive amongst the chaos!
